  They rushed forward and crowded around Tang Hao.

  The female celebrities looked at him with eager gazes.

  That handsome, rich, and capable young man would be the ideal partner.

  “Mr. Tang, this is my phone number. Please contact me whenever you’re free!”

  “Mr. Tang, should we have lunch together some time?”

  The female celebrities were quite daring. They invited him for dates or handed him their phone numbers.

  Tang Hao was helpless. Eventually, he settled all of them.

  When he turned around, Tian Qiuming was still sitting on the ground. His face was pale as he muttered, “It’s you… how could it be you?”

  ‘That kid is actually Haotian’s boss?

  ‘Haotian announced that they’re making a movie after that incident. Is it a coincidence?’

  Tang Hao sneered and walked over. “Do you think it’s over? There’s more coming your way!”

  After saying that, he patted Tian Qiuming’s shoulder and turned around to leave.

  “Chairman Tang!”

  “Fellow… Boss Tang!” Trendy Taoist Master nearly called him “Fellow Cultivator.”

  “How brazen of that guy to cross you!” Trendy Taoist Master glanced at Tian Qiuming and sneered, “Indeed, only trash people make trash movies.”

  Tang Hao smiled and walked alongside them.

  About ten minutes later, a few police officers barged into the hall, glanced around, and walked directly toward Tian Qiuming.

  “Tian Qiuming, you’re under arrest!”

  “According to an anonymous report, we found a large stockpile of drugs in your mansion. You’re suspected of taking and dealing drugs. Come with us!”

  After showing their identification, the police officers handcuffed Tian Qiuming.

  Tian Qiuming was stunned. His body went limp.

  “How could it be…” he muttered. His gaze wandered and eventually focused on Tang Hao.

  ‘Could it be… him?

  ‘But how did he know that I’m taking drugs?’

  There was an uproar all around.

  Many people looked at Tang Hao with fear.

  Everything was too much of a coincidence. It definitely had something to do with that person.

  After Tian Qiuming was taken away, the commotion in the hall continued for a few minutes before it slowly subsided. The incident was eventually forgotten.

  After that, Tian Qiuming would be completely finished. No one would pay attention to him.

  The banquet was about to start. Everyone sat down.

  Tang Hao, Trendy Taoist Master, and Zhuo Hong sat together. The people sitting at the same table were all famous celebrities. They were chatting happily.

  As they chatted, Tang Hao suddenly sensed that someone was spying on him.

  Tang Hao turned around and looked in that direction. He was stunned for a moment. That gaze came from several foreigners sitting on a table not far away.

  Chapter 631 - The Eagle and the Dragon

  Tang Hao furrowed his brows.

  He was sure that someone was spying on him, but who could it be?

  He swept his gaze over and carefully sized up the people at the table.

  Nearly half of them were foreigners. There were men and women, and they were chatting in English. Tang Hao had just shaken hands with the Huaxianese people at the table, and he recognized all of them. They were all senior executives of a film company.

  “Those foreigners… who are they?” Tang Hao asked Zhuo Hong.

  Zhuo Hong was surprised. He glanced over and said, “They’re all famous actors from Hollywood in Merrica. Right now, our Huaxia film industry has a lot of collaborative projects with Hollywood.”

  Then, he introduced the people to Tang Hao one by one.

  “What’s the matter, chairman Tang? Are you interested in foreign celebrities? I can hook you up!” He teased.

  Tang Hao shook his head and smiled. “I’m just asking!”

  After saying that, he turned around and continued chatting with the others.

  Soon, the banquet began.

  As the guests ate and drank, he could not shake off the feeling that he was being watched.

  Tang Hao pondered for a moment, then stood up and walked toward the washroom.

  After walking out of the hall, he walked through a wide corridor and turned a corner.

  Tang Hao entered the men’s washroom, stayed for a while, washed his hands, and then walked out.

  At the end of the corridor, he heard the sound of footsteps. It was the crisp sound of high heels stepping on the floor.

  Tang Hao looked up and saw a tall figure walking over from the other end.

  It was a blond-haired, blue-eyed foreigner in her twenties. She wore a fitting black gown, revealing her impressive figure.

  She was quite beautiful, and her entire body was adorned with jewelry. She seemed noble and elegant.

  According to Zhuo Hong’s introduction, her name was Rachel, and she was a famous Hollywood movie star.

  Tang Hao’s expression did not change as he walked over.

  She also walked toward Tang Hao calmly.

  Nothing out of the ordinary seemed to happen.

  Just as they were about to pass each other, she suddenly acted. She raised her hand and chopped toward Tang Hao.

  Tang Hao’s expression changed.

  This move was too fast. She was not an ordinary person, but a cultivator!

  He raised his hand and blocked the attack.

  Bam! Bam! Bam!

  The two people exchange more than ten blows in an instant.

  Ripples of qi were emitted upon every attack.

  Tang Hao’s expression changed again. He did not notice the qi ripples earlier, but now that they were fighting, he realized that the opponent had about the same cultivation base as him.

  The discovery shocked him.

  However, the other party did not have any killing intent. The sudden attack was more like a test.

  Tang Hao suddenly exerted his strength. After exchanging a few blows, he pushed her against the wall. Then, he leaned forward and pressed down on her snow-white neck with his elbow.

  He coldly stared at her jade-green eyes and said coldly, “Who are you?”

  She did not resist. Instead, she smiled. “Hello, the Dragon of Huaxia! We meet again!”

  Tang Hao was first surprised, then stunned.

  ‘Again?

  ‘Have we met before?’

  When he remembered her astonishing cultivation base, Tang Hao asked in surprise, “It’s you?”

  If she had such a high cultivation base and they had met before, she would be none other than the Divine Eagle.

  However, her face was completely different. As for her figure…

  Thinking of that, Tang Hao subconsciously lowered his head to look.

  His face immediately blushed red.

  His body was pressed on hers, and he could smell a refreshing fragrance from her body.

  He was baffled.

  The figure felt slightly off. He vaguely remembered that her skin had been fairer and her figure was better.

  She was also blushing.

  They were in a precarious position.

  “It’s me. It’s just that I’ve put on a disguise.”

  Tang Hao removed some of his pressure on her body. “What are you doing in Huaxia?” He asked coldly.

  “I’m here to look for you!” She said.

  “Why are you looking for me?” Tang Hao asked.

  She was about to speak when she heard footsteps from the other end of the corridor. A few people came into view.

  They were stunned when they looked over.

  ‘Oh my god! What’s going on?

  ‘Isn’t that Haotian’s chairman and Rachel the Hollywood actress? They’ve already hooked up so quickly, and they’re even making out in the corridor?

  ‘How decadent!’

  “Wow!” They exclaimed and looked at Tang Hao
with admiration.

  “Ahem!” Tang Hao quickly let go and stepped back.

  “I’ll look for you after midnight!” She leaned over and whispered in Tang Hao’s ear. Then, she turned around and walked toward the washroom.

  Tang Hao glanced at her back and then turned around to walk back to the hall.

  “You’re amazing, Mr. Tang! Do you have any tips to score foreign chicks?”

  Those people came over with perverted expressions.

  Tang Hao rolled his eyes. “There’s no secret. It’s not what you think.” After saying that, he ignored their strange gazes and turned around to leave.

  He returned in his seat. After a few minutes, she appeared again as if nothing had happened and did not look at him.

  After the banquet ended, Tang Hao bade farewell to Trendy Taoist Master and Zhuo Hong before driving back to Provincial City alone.

  After midnight, she arrived as promised.

  She rode on a gust of wind and landed gently on the balcony. Her white dress was like snow and her golden hair danced in the wind. Her beautiful face was hazy and dreamy in the night, which was a breath-taking sight.

  Under the moonlight, her temperament was pure and noble, as if a goddess had descended onto the earth.

  She stood barefoot on the balcony. Her golden eyes turned and looked toward Tang Hao in the apartment.

  “Hello, Dragon! Or should I call you Tang Hao?”

  Tang Hao sat there facing her and said coldly, “Whatever!”

  “I really didn’t expect you to be as young as you look. I thought you were already in your seventies or eighties, but I didn’t expect you to be only twenty!” She chuckled softly.

  “Aren’t you the same? You’re about the same as me!”

  “It’s different. I reached this cultivation base only because of the Witch’s Heart,” she said. “I was about to overlook you, but I didn’t expect that you managed to block my attack.”

  “You came here alone. Aren’t you afraid that I’ll kill you?”

  “I’m not afraid! If you wanted to kill me, you could have done that a long time ago!”

  Tang Hao laughed and said, “You’re too naïve. If I didn’t kill you before, it doesn’t mean that I won’t kill you now.”

  “Then you can kill me now!”

  Tang Hao was speechless. He became sheepish.

  Seeing him like that, she smiled and looked smug. “I knew you wouldn’t kill me,” she said playfully.

  “There’s no need for that,” Tang Hao retorted.

  “Is there anything else? You’re not here to confirm my identity, are you?” After a moment, Tang Hao asked again.

  Thea did not say anything.

  Her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and there was a hint of hesitation in her eyes.

  After a long while, she seemed to have made up her mind. “If… anything happens to me, can I come to you for help?” She said.

  As she said that, she stared at Tang Hao without blinking.

  Under the moonlight, her pair of golden eyes shone brightly, like a pair of resplendent gemstones.

  There was a hint of pleading and anticipation in those eyes.

  Tang Hao was surprised. Thea was so powerful, what could happen to her? He looked at her doubtfully. “What’s going on?”

  “I’m saying, just in case…” she said.

  Tang Hao’s expression turned cold. “If you won’t say it, then I can’t help you. I’m not obligated to help you anyway!”

  She was from Merrica, and technically, she was the enemy. He did not have any obligation to help her.

  In an instant, her gaze dimmed.

  “Is that so?”

  She muttered softly, feeling somewhat disappointed.

  “That’s true! You’re not obligated…” She smiled bitterly. She seemed forlorn.

  She looked at Tang Hao again and said, “I won’t disturb you then. Don’t worry, I won’t reveal your identity.” As she said that, she tapped her foot, and her figure rose into the air and dashed away.

  In the blink of an eye, she disappeared into the night.

  Tang Hao sat there with his brows tightly furrowed.

  From her tone of voice, she seemed to be in big trouble. However, he could not think of what could have troubled her.

  She was the Divine Eagle of Merrica. Her status was revered, and she was incredibly powerful.

  “Never mind!”

  Tang Hao decided not to think about it anymore. The matter did not concern him anyway.

  He sat down cross-legged, took out the alchemical furnace, and began to make pills.

  The next morning, Tang Hao carried his backpack and went to the university.

  “Tang Hao, I’m from the drama club. Do you think I have the potential to be an actor?”

  “Tang Hao, are you looking for extras? I can be in any role!”

  Tang Hao was surrounded by a group of enthusiastic students at the front gate.

  The movie “Mao Mountain Taoist Priest” was incredibly popular during the Lunar New Year period, and Haotian Pictures became famous as well.

  All of the students wanted to take the opportunity to have a shot at fame.

  “We’ll talk about that later!”

  Tang Hao struggled to free himself from the crowd. When he turned his head, he saw Jiang Wanying not far away.

  She stood there, holding her textbook and looking at him with a smile.

  “Teacher Jiang!”

  Tang Hao was stunned and quickly greeted her.

  “You’re very popular!” She said with a slight smile.

  Tang Hao coughed.

  “Let’s go!” She glanced sideways, her pretty face dignified like a teacher ought to.

  Tang Hao followed her and walked toward the classroom.

  They chatted along the way. When they were almost in the classroom, she suddenly said, “Oh, right, come to my house in the afternoon. Help me move!”

  “Move?”

  “Yes! I’m moving out. This place is too small, and the condition of the apartment isn’t very good. Besides, I’m still a little traumatized after what happened before,” Jiang Wanying said.

  “Where are you moving to?”

  “Silk Gardens, not far away. The environment there is good, and the residential area is gentrified. The house is well-furnished, but the rent is a little more expensive.”

  “Oh!” Tang Hao responded.

  After inheriting her grandfather’s fortune, Jiang Wanying’s family was quite rich. The rent increase was nothing at all.

  After lunch, Tang Hao met up with Jiang Wanying and went to her house to help pack up.

  The movers arrived after they were done. They carried the things downstairs, loaded them into the truck, and transported them to Silk Gardens.

  The new house was very spacious. The interior was luxurious and furnished in a modern style. The bedroom and the beds were especially big.

  They carried the things into the house and put them in their proper place. Then, they went to buy some necessities for the house. The chores lasted for three to four hours.

  “We’re done!”

  After tidying the living room, Jiang Wanying clapped her hands and announced with satisfaction.

  She looked around and felt happy. Then, she turned and said to Tang Hao, “Thank you for your hard work!”

  As she said that, she walked up quickly and kissed Tang Hao’s cheek. She smiled and said, “This is your reward. Now, come with me to buy a car!”

  “What car?” Tang Hao asked.

  “Well… I haven’t thought about it. I’m a teacher, so I can’t buy something too expensive!” Jiang Wanying said hesitantly.

  “What are you afraid of?” Tang Hao said, “It’s legitimate money, and you don’t need to be afraid of gossip! Many teachers in the university drive luxury cars, right?”

  “That
’s true!”

  “Let’s survey the BMWs then!”

  They went to a BMW showroom and walked around. Finally, she decided on an M4 model, which cost nearly one million yuan.

  “I’m a car owner now!”

  She was extremely excited after receiving the keys. She drove Tang Hao around and went to the supermarket, where she bought a lot of daily necessities and food ingredients.

  After cooking dinner and taking a shower, she walked out of the bedroom.

  She was draped in a bathrobe and drying her hair. She seemed to be wearing nothing beneath the bathrobe, and her alluring figure was faintly discernible.

  She sat down in front of the dining table without a care, and she became amazed when she looked at the table full of dishes.

  “How blissful!”

  She moved into a new house, bought a car, and had a feast in front of her. At that moment, she felt extremely happy.

  “Thank you!”

  She gave Tang Hao a bright smile, then picked up the bowl and chopsticks and started to eat.

  “Delicious! So delicious!

  “This is so delicious, that is also super delicious…”

  She exclaimed occasionally.

  She cleaned up half of the dishes on the table and burped.

  Tang Hao could not help but laugh.

  After eating, Tang Hao cleaned the table and brought the dishes into the kitchen.

  “Are you… staying?”

  Tang Hao was washing the dishes. She walked behind Tang Hao, reached out, hugged him, and asked him softly.

  Tang Hao was silent for a while.

  “I’ll have to go,” Tang Hao said.

  “Oh!” She replied, “Then can you stay for at least a while? Accompany me.”

  As she said that, she hugged Tang Hao tightly and pressed her face against his broad back.

  “OK!”

  “It’s only eight o’clock now. How about you leave at ten?” She looked at her watch and said.

  After washing the dishes, she pulled Tang Hao to the living room. They curled up on the sofa and watched TV together.

  After ten o’clock, she reluctantly sent Tang Hao out.

  He did not take a cab. Instead, he walked back to his apartment.

  He felt slightly worried as he walked along the deserted street.

  Qin Xiangyi had said that she allowed him to make mistakes, but he nonetheless felt guilty when more and more females seemed to have fallen for him.
